1973: Bob Thomas kicks a 19-yard field goal with 4:26 remaining to give Notre Dame a come-from-behind, 24-23 victory over top-ranked Alabama in the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. The Fighting Irish finish the 1973 season 11-0 and are voted the national champions in Coach Ara Parseghian's second-to-last season. "This was not only a great game for Notre Dame, it was a great game for college football," Parseghian says.
Apples and oranges, to say the least.
